SYDNEY, AU, Sept 30, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - As ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) considerations take centre stage in the financial industry, Pro Visionary, a Sydney-based wealth management company, continues to integrate these principles into its investment strategies. The global shift towards sustainability is not just a trend, but a long-term transition in how businesses operate, and Australia is no exception. Pro Visionary's team has recognised the importance of ESG in shaping the future of investment portfolios, particularly within the fixed-income sector.In the Australian finance market, ESG investments have grown substantially over the past few years. The emphasis on sustainability is no longer limited to equity investments but extends to fixed-income markets as well. Bonds issued by environmentally or socially responsible entities, such as green bonds or social bonds, have been attracting considerable interest. These instruments have gained traction due to their ability to provide stable returns while addressing urgent environmental and social challenges. Recent data from the Responsible Investment Association Australasia (RIAA) indicates a rising demand for such fixed-income products, with investors seeking both financial performance and measurable societal impact.Michael White, Senior Adviser at Pro Visionary, highlighted the role that ESG plays in shaping the investment landscape. "ESG criteria have evolved into key drivers of long-term value. Integrating ESG into fixed-income strategies enhances risk management and fosters sustainable returns. Investors are increasingly recognising that incorporating environmental and social factors is no longer a compromise but a means to strengthen portfolios in the face of emerging risks."White's commentary aligns with broader market trends, where investors have noted that ESG risks, such as climate change or poor corporate governance, can directly impact the creditworthiness of issuers. In Australia, the adoption of ESG measures in fixed-income strategies has been especially relevant due to the country's vulnerability to climate risks, such as extreme weather events and their impact on industries like agriculture and energy.Mark Thompson, also a Senior Adviser at Pro Visionary, expanded on this by discussing the firm's commitment to identifying opportunities that align with sustainable development. "The focus on ESG not only contributes to the greater good but also identifies companies with strong governance and forward-looking strategies. This helps manage risks that traditional models may overlook. Furthermore, fixed-income products like green bonds offer avenues to support infrastructure projects aimed at decarbonising industries, which will be critical in the years ahead."Thompson's perspective is increasingly echoed by many Australian investors who are aware of the need for sustainability within their portfolios. With the Australian government placing stronger emphasis on sustainable finance through various policy frameworks, this creates a conducive environment for further growth in ESG-related investments, including within the bond market.Pro Visionary's approach involves a careful evaluation of ESG factors at every level of the investment process. By doing so, the firm seeks to provide investors with exposure to assets that not only offer solid returns but also contribute positively to societal outcomes. The firm has implemented stringent evaluation criteria for bonds that promote environmental sustainability and social responsibility, aligning with global ESG standards.While ESG-focused investments are still evolving in the fixed-income space, Pro Visionary believes that the momentum is only set to grow. "Incorporating ESG into fixed-income investments doesn't just align portfolios with values-it builds resilience. As regulatory frameworks tighten and consumer expectations shift, investment portfolios that ignore ESG risk lagging behind," commented White.As Australia's financial landscape adapts to this ESG wave, Pro Visionary remains committed to identifying fixed-income opportunities that align with both the financial goals and ethical standards of investors. Through ongoing research and an informed understanding of the global ESG environment, the company aims to support the transition to a more sustainable and responsible future, all while ensuring that risk-adjusted returns remain a priority for their clients.About Pro Visionary Pty LtdPro Visionary is an active investment manager in Australian and Global Equities, Credit and Fixed-Income.

HONG KONG, Sept 30, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - In the first half of 2024, the restaurant industry faced significant challenges due to shifting consumer preferences, changing spending habits and intensified competition. The increasing cost of goods and fiercely competitive pricing have resulted in an overall decline in industry profitability, with several large-scale restaurants reporting losses. Despite this challenging environment, DPC Dash ("Domino’s Pizza China" or the "Company") (1405.HK) has leveraged these changes as a catalyst for growth, developing a new competitive edge focused on high quality-to-price ratios, allowing the company to flourish against prevailing trends.DPC Dash, Domino's Pizza's exclusive master franchisee in the China Mainland, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of China, and the Macau Special Administrative Region of China, has successfully implemented its 4D strategy of Development, Delicious Pizza at Value, Delivery, and Digital. This approach has driven sustainable growth and profitability in the underserved Chinese pizza market in the first half of 2024, as reported in the company’s recently released interim financial report.In the first half of 2024, DPC Dash generated record-high revenue of RMB2.04 billion, representing a year-over-year increase of 48.3%. This steady revenue growth reflects DPC Dash’s sustainable business model and resilient counter-cyclical strategy, which have significantly improved its profitability.The Company’s financial improvement is demonstrated by its positive adjusted net profit and net profit after tax. Adjusted net profit turned positive in the first half of 2024 to reach RMB 50.9 million, compared to an adjusted net loss of RMB17.4 million in the same period of 2023. The company also reported a net profit after tax of RMB10.9 million, a 24.6% year-over-year increase compared to RMB8.8 million of the same period of 2023, positively impacted by the fair value gain of approximately RMB119.3 million on convertible senior ordinary shares.Another testament to the company’s strong profitability is its same-store sales growth (SSSG), which compares the sales generated by same stores during the relevant period year-on-year. In the face of recent market challenges, it is extremely difficult to maintain positive SSSG momentum. DPC Dash has demonstrated its ability to deliver sustainable growth, achieving 28 consecutive quarters of SSSG, while continuing its expansion efforts.As a franchisor of Domino’s Pizza, Inc., one of the world’s largest pizza companies, DPC Dash leverages this global strength to execute its 4D strategy, which continues to drive the company’s success in the underserved China pizza market.DPC Dash has continued to execute its “go-deeper, go-broader” strategy, as DPC Dash added 146 stores and entered 4 cities in the first half of 2024. Total stores reached 914 across 33 cities as of June 30, 2024. This represents more than an eightfold increase in store numbers since the current management took over in 2017.  Newly-opened stores have been delivering exceptional performance. In the first half of 2024, revenue generated from new growth markets accounted for 61% of the total revenue, making new growth markets the Company’s main growth driver. Store numbers in the new growth markets exceeded 50% of all stores. At the beginning of May, DPC Dash expanded its presence by entering three new cities: Taizhou, Huizhou, and Jinhua in one week. The first stores in Huizhou and Jinhua both broke the DPC Dash record for daily sales. In June, DPC Dash celebrated the grand opening of its 900th store in Chengdu, Sichuan. As of July 31, 2024, DPC Dash held 28 of the top 30 positions for first 30-day sales among Domino's stores globally. In newly entered markets, DPC Dash continues to expand its presence with more stores opening, while maintaining strong performance in existing stores. Among 42 stores the Company opened in 12 new cities from the late December 2023 through the first half of 2024, 18 stores have already achieved payback. The Company is expecting a shorter payback period on new stores than previously, reflecting the efficiency of its expansion strategy.A McKinsey report identifies several key trends shaping consumer behavior, including a notable rise in engagement among younger consumers, especially in lower-tier cities where confidence remains relatively high. This demographic is more inclined to explore new dining experiences and local cuisines, providing restaurants with opportunities to innovate and attract this growing market segment. The newly-opened stores of DPC Dash in new markets have enjoyed great popularity, with people forming long lines at new locations. In response, DPC Dash actively suspended delivery services for selected new stores to cater to the high demand for in-store dining.Long queue in front of Domino‘s Pizza store in China MainlandDPC Dash has continuously innovated its product offerings and services at value to better serve customers’ evolving tastes and provide satisfying dining experience. Domino’s Pizza has established a global reputation for tasty pizza products and very innovative menus. The company introduces new stock keeping units (SKUs) every six to eight weeks, on average. In the first seven months of 2024, DPC Dash introduced three new pizza varieties and two new crust options, such as barbeque pork stuffed crust and coconut and pumpkin double decker.Now the menu boasts over 30 pizza varieties and approximately 20 crust options, with pizza sales contributing more than 75% of the total sales. DPC Dash recently launched the new Volcano crust, filled with oozing cheddar cheese magma and Oreo crumbs. This unique concept in the pizza industry has already garnered positive feedback and recognition from the customers.Volcano Crust from Domino’s Pizza ChinaAt the same time, DPC Dash has been offering value options on its menu with regular promotions on “Crazy Tuesday & Wednesday” and the “Mega Weeks”. Limited-time promotions partnering with popular brands cross sectors, such as Tencent Games and Hello Kitty, have also proven attractive to customers.Meanwhile, brand marketing activities have become more targeted and cost-effective as the company strengthened its brand through network growth and strong performance in newly-entered markets. The Company has continuously enhanced its offering of personalized rewards, improving both new customer conversion and existing customer retention. As of August 2024, DPC Dash’s loyalty program has surpassed 20 million members, nearly doubling from 10.9 million members in June 2023. The Company continue to drive customer engagement, attracting new customers by dynamically engaging them through multiple online channels.To cater to the surging demand, DPC Dash has set up central kitchens in Sanhe, Shanghai and Dongguan. In the central kitchens, the Company has already introduced automated machines to further boost production efficiency and management capability, as well as to improve delivery efficiency. The success of the 4D strategy execution is reflected in enhanced profitability metrics on both store and group levels. The store-level operating profit margin increased to 14.5% in the first half of 2024, up from 13.5% in the same period last year. The store-level EBITDA margin increased to 19.3% in the first half of 2024, up from 18.7% in the first half of 2023. At the group level, group adjusted EBITDA reached RMB233.4 million, representing an 83.7% year-over-year increase from 127.0 million in the first half of 2023. Accordingly, group adjusted EBITDA margin rose to 11.4%, nearly tripling from 3.9% in year end of 2021.In addition to serving consumers, DPC Dash remains committed to delivering long-term value to its shareholders. Only one year after its successful listing on Hong Kong Stock Exchange, DPC Dash has been officially included in both the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect Program and Shenzhen-Hong Kong Connect Program, and has been selected to be a constituent stock for the Hong Kong Hang Seng Composite Index, effective in September. Reuters reported on September 27, "China stocks record best week since 2008." The New York Times stated, "The volatile Hang Seng Index in Hong Kong, which includes a range of companies with activities in Hong Kong and in mainland China, was also up 12.8 percent this week." DPC Dash's stock has experienced substantial growth since its IPO, increasing by over 20% in the past ten trading days as of September 27.DPC Dash has announced plans to open approximately 240 new stores in 2024, and will open its 1000th store in the fourth quarter of 2024. As of August 20, 2024, the Company has opened an additional 31 stores, with 29 stores under construction, and 21 stores signed, putting it on track to meet its full-year opening target. The company expects to open approximately 300 to 350 stores in both 2025 and 2026.The early months of 2024 have shown a remarkable 12.5% increase in foodservice sales, indicating a robust recovery in the hospitality sector, according to a report from McKinsey & Company. This surge reflects increased consumer confidence and a return to dining out as pandemic restrictions ease, suggesting that consumers are willing to spend more on experiences such as dining, which is crucial for the restaurant industry.Amid the attractive, growing market with its vast geographical scope and population, companies are striving for profitability and growth that requires more stable and resilient strategies. DPC Dash will continue to execute its 4D strategy in an efficient manner, aiming to deliver delicious pizza at value to customers, and sustainable long-term value for all stakeholders.

SYDNEY, AU, Sept 30, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - SSLTrust, a leading global provider of digital certificates for public key infrastructure, has identified the APAC region as needing a new local issuing Certificate Authority.Verokey LogoVerokey, the new Australian Issuing Certificate AuthorityCurrently, in the APAC region, SSLTrust has been pushing international Certificate Authority products for Australia to the forefront, which has been welcomed by customers but with limited acceptance, mainly in terms of price. So launching a new Australian-based issuing Certificate Authority, Verokey, using the same infrastructure, has been very well accepted by customers to overcome that hurdle. Verokey has proven instrumental in fundamental security for Australian and Asia Pacific businesses and government entities while providing the best solutions at affordable prices. This success is in addition to SSLTrust's customer-centric approach to PKI solutions and their implementation.Unlike many other Certificate Providers in Australia and the Asia Pacific, we can provide customers with a high level of local support via phone, email, online chat and onsite assistance. We help customer manage all their Certificates through their very own feature-rich account while benefiting from the lower priced Verokey productsSSLTrust's Managing Director, Paul Baka, explains how this lets users have quality products to the likes of other Certificate Authorities but with an added level of quality support and better local pricing - a feature that's not otherwise readily available in Australia.Purchasing Certificates to secure networks, devices, websites, and more has historically been a significant headache for Australian organisations, with the costs constantly rising and exceeding allocated budgets. In the last two years alone, customers of the overseas-based Certificate Authorities have seen price increases upward of 50%. And when organisations weigh these against the benefits, they start to question the requirements of these higher-priced solutions. That is where Verokey helps by providing the same solutions and products (sometimes exceeding current offerings) while still keeping the prices affordable so organisations can maintain their security and meet budget limitations.Paulunderscores the company's unwavering commitment to meeting unique customer requests. This dedication to customer satisfaction is a key differentiator for SSLTrust, setting it apart from other resellers or Certificate Authorities and reassuring customers that SSLTrust is always ready to go the extra mile to meet their requirements, making them feel accommodated and understood.Critical features of SSLTrust's repertoire of products through the new Verokey Issuing Certificate Authority include (but are not limited to):More competitive prices than were previously available in APACRapid service and streamlined issuance processesPKI Certificate Lifecycle Management SolutionsAmple support systems provided by web security expertsAs the importance of digital trust increases, so does the value of high-end SSL/TLS certificates and their ease of management.Keyko Press Release: (+61) 02 8123 0992Contact InformationHollie AcresAccount Managerinfo@keyko.com.au+61 2 8123 0992Related FilesverokeySOURCE: SSLTrust Copyright 2024 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.
